Ok, so not working timeline wise. Buffy would have DIED already by the time Connor was born, and would be sleeping with Spike.

Angel sleeping with Darla, had NOTHING to do with Buffy. He wasn't even THINKING about Buffy. Buffy barely entered his MIND those days. Cordelia, yeah, but sleeping with Darla was all about sex. That and her taunting him.

"The maids will love having a baby to look after?" The hell they will! A baby's a loud noise at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other. It's obvious these are the kind of people who pay others to look after their kids.:) But seriously, this seems a very sweet chapter. I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop.
